3. Current Efforts in RR-TAG
September 2005
Current Efforts in RR-TAG
RR-TAG September interim meeting will be held in Geneva, Switzerland, from September
RR-TAG will be meeting in the ITU facility
Intent is to provide RR-TAG attendees exposure to the ITU-R process, allow ITU-R meeting attendees to learn what the function of the RR-TAG is and to encourage participation in the IEEE process

Results
had received and responded to a consultation from the European Commission (EC) with regard to 2.6 GHz spectrum which was
asking if a specific technology should be mandated or if the spectrum should be handled in a 'technology neutral' perspective. 
Our position is that Regulators should not specify a technology.
The RR-TAG also updated the RR-TAG P&P to define reflector access, which was overlooked.
We concluded our meetings and changed the venue to participate in meetings of ITU-R Working Party 8A, and its subgroups
WG4 - Interference and sharing; and
WG7 - Wireless access, Including RLANs.
No Direct Impacts on WG15 apparent
